You are comparing two possible capital structures for a firm. The first option is an all-equity firm. The second option involves the use of $3.8 million of debt. The break-even point between these two financing options occurs when earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $428,000. Given this, you know that leverage is beneficial to the firm: A- whenever EBIT exceeds $428,000 B- whenever EBIT is less than $428,000 C- only when EBIT is $428,000 D- only if the debt is decreased by $428,000 E- only is the debt is increased by $428,000
